Jillian Cooper never wanted Callum, until a dream morphs him
from her best friend's husband to a singular nocturnal
fantasy. Revolted by her own mind and loyal to a fault, she
refuses to give the dream life. Still, it manages to make
her awkward around her only family; Amery, Callum, and their
two stunning daughters. As an orphan and an Explosive
Ordinance Tech with the Navy, things have a way of crashing
down around her. The world crumbling call came in the form
of a single car, single fatality accident. Amery died.

While she spins in dizzying circles, the girls she's loved
since they were in their momma's belly cling to her. When
Callum's strong arms fortify them and keep them all from
falling apart, Jillian's inner struggle reaches a breaking
point. She does the only thing she can to honor her friend's
memory...run to the other side of the world to contract for
Titan Group, an elite private securities force in need of an
EOD.

Callum Bradfield adapts and overcomes. Even after the tragic
death of his wife, his core values as a Navy SEAL march him
forward...to safer waters. His gig as mission transport for
Base Branch—the special operations force for the UN—isn’t as
adrenaline laden, but he refuses to make his girls orphans.

Things are beginning to regroup when Jillian bales on his
girls—and him—without a word. To ensure she's safe, he hacks
her personal information and follows the crumbs into Titan's
database. Crossing that line gets them both under a
microscope in the middle of a desert, searching for the
proof they need to show their innocence, while he tries to
convince Jillian he's more than just her dream.
